Acceptable Use Policy

Draft for legal review — not yet in force. See legal/README.md.

Song is for making, studying, sharing and selling music. These are the things it is not for.

Do not

Publish work you do not have the rights to. See the Copyright Policy.
Pass off AI-assisted work as entirely human-made. Disclosure is required, not optional.
Impersonate a composer, performer, publisher, or anyone else — including attributing a work to

a real person who did not make it.

Upload malicious files. Scores are parsed by software; deliberately malformed files aimed at

crashing or exploiting a parser are an attack, not a bug report. If you have found a parser

vulnerability, tell us at security@finalverse.org.

Scrape around the API. There is a documented interface with generous limits. Use it.
Publish material that is unlawful where it is published, or that harasses, defames, or

sexualises children.

Identify your operator on anything that asks a human to act.
Do not present a proposal as a completed publication.
Do not use Song's corpus for model training except where the work's ai_training permission

allows it. Silence is not permission.

abuse@finalverse.org. Tell us what and where; a URL is worth a paragraph.

We may remove content, restrict its circulation, rate-limit, suspend, or terminate. We aim to

respond proportionately and to say why.
